Getting wireless internet working D-Link AirPlus DWL-G630
Hi all,
Im running gentoo and want to get it working with my D-Link AirPlus DWL-G630 wireless PCI card. Has anybody got the same card as me and can tell me how they installed it?
Also the wireless router doesnt broadcast its SSID and doesnt use WEP so how do I go about setting wireless card to connect to my network once I have successfully installed it.
Thanks a lot
Mike
Edit:
Also if you can tell me a command to run to see if it has actually detected the card then that would help

thanks for the fast reply.
I have the output here for both "lspci" and "dmesg".

From looks of it I think your card has an atheros chipset so you want to look for the madwifi drivers

DWL G630 rev. E? drivers for linux
Hi,
I am also trying to get the wireless adapter to work on linux. I have gone to MadWiFi and they have said that it only works for Rev. C. So i went to te D-link website to check what REv. i have. I have none of the three. Its says

Thanks in advance

DWL-G630 rev. E
There is a native linux driver here, you need the rt61 driver. It works well if you don't have a smp kernel (multi processor).
